VICI Properties Inc. (NYSE: VICI) (“VICI Properties” or the “Company”), an experiential real estate investment trust, announced today the closing of an upsized underwritten public offering of 30,302,500 shares of its common stock (including 3,952,500 shares sold pursuant to the exercise in full of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional common stock), all of which were offered on a forward basis through the forward purchasers or their respective affiliates in connection with the forward sale agreements described below at a public offering price of $33.00 per share.

Morgan Stanley, BofA Securities, Citigroup and J.P. Morgan acted as joint book-running managers for the offering, and as representatives of the underwriters in the offering. Barclays, BNP PARIBAS, Capital One Securities, JMP Securities, A Citizens Company, Deutsche Bank Securities, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Scotiabank, Truist Securities and Wells Fargo Securities acted as bookrunners in the offering. Baird, KeyBanc Capital Markets, Raymond James and SMBC Nikko acted as senior co-managers in the offering. CBRE, Ladenburg Thalmann, Macquarie Capital, Stifel and Wolfe Capital Markets and Advisory acted as co-managers in the offering.

The Company entered into separate forward sale agreements with each of Morgan Stanley, BofA Securities, Citibank, N.A. and J.P. Morgan (or their respective affiliates) (the “forward purchasers”) with respect to the shares of common stock covered by the offering. In connection with the forward sale agreements, the forward purchasers or their respective affiliates borrowed and sold to the underwriters all of the shares of common stock that were delivered in the offering.

Subject to its right to elect cash or net share settlement under certain conditions, the Company intends to deliver, upon full physical settlement of the forward sale agreements on one or more dates specified by the Company occurring no later than approximately twelve months following the date of the prospectus supplement relating to the offering, an aggregate of 30,302,500 shares of common stock to the forward purchasers in exchange for cash proceeds per share equal to the applicable forward sale price, which will initially be the public offering price less the underwriting discount and will be subject to certain adjustments as provided in the forward sale agreements.

The Company will not initially receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by the forward purchasers or their respective affiliates. The Company expects to cause any cash proceeds that it receives upon the future settlement of the forward sale agreements to be contributed to VICI Properties OP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a consolidated subsidiary of the Company which serves as the operating partnership of the Company, which expects to use such proceeds in connection with or in furtherance of the ongoing business and operations of the Company, including funding the Company’s pipeline for the acquisition, development and improvement of properties, origination and funding of loans directly or indirectly secured by real estate, and other general corporate purposes, which may include capital expenditures, working capital and the repayment or refinancing of indebtedness.
